"Well that was slightly underwhelming" Calypso said, as everyone who in shock of what happened
" Why does everything have to be underwhelming or overwhelming, why can't it just be whelmed?" Leo jokingly asked
The looks he got probably told him, not the time Valdez
"That is what remains of our home?" Hera asked shocked "Ash and dust, nothing but rubble in the wind"
She looked back at her husband and saw the anger, pain... and fear in his eyes. They flickered with a tornado of emotions. Zeus' knuckles turned white as he gripped his Master Bolt.
"Olympus mustn't fall like that," Zeus said his voice less commanding then usual
"And it never will, Brother" Poseidon said as he grabbed his Trident and stood up facing the council
"Remember that this will not happen, the Giants have fallen- for good"
"That is true, this is but a what if not an absolute point in time," Athena stated
Everyone looked at the two Olympians in shock, as they actually agreed on something-for once.
"What, I can agree with old Barnacle beard sometimes"
"Owl head" Poseidon retorted
"Kelp for Brains"
"Bird face"
"Sushi grandpa"
Apollo and Hermes snorted and laughed loudly at Athena's final insulting nickname. Even Poseidon started to laugh at his nephews' giggles.
"Sushi Grandpa, I can't even-" Hermes said, banging his armrest with his fist
"Silence my nephews. you-we must continue this," Hestia said kindly, shutting up Apollo and Hermes
Hestia, she ma look meek but damn she got her respect-thanks to Percy Jackson.
The screen played resumed where it left of previously...
"Could you explain why you are mad at me, Valdez" Nico exasperated as he walked and stumbled across the ruins of Mt Olympus
"I already told you Ghost boy, you disappeared for 3 months and didn't say anything"
"Leo I -"
"You expect me to believe that you just disappeared, that you pussied out of this war and have no clue what's happening" Leo snapped back
Nico's glaze headed towards the ground and walked in silence for a few minutes
Leo sighed realizing his mistake, "Nico, I know I sound harsh but … man I have been stressed out"
"Could... Could you tell me how Olympus and Camp were ..you know?" Nico asked
"Destroyed, annihilated, reduced to nothing but dust in the winds of this hellscape I call life" Leo replied with a neutral tone
"Yeah, that"
"Its a long story, we don't have time," Leo said kicking some stones across the rock infested earth
Nico grabbed Leo's arm and pulled him towards a pillar
"We have all the time in the world" Nico said looking into the Latino's eyes
Leo sighed as he produced a flame from his hand, and sat down on the horizontal pillar
"It stared out with the destruction of Camp Half Blood...
A younger looking Leo appeared on the screen. two other demigods were under him as he flew flaming on a giant bronze creature. It was Festus
"This must be when everything went wrong" Annabeth said. Everyone became more invested
"Jason, Pipes Im sorry but I need to do this myself"
"LEO VALDEZ I SWEAR IF YOU DI..." Piper's voice was muffled by the winds
"Thanks Blondie" Leo said facing the son of Jupiter
Jason flew towards the Latino demigod and gave him a hug
"You can thank me, when you come back" he whispered
"Okay, Blond Superman-" Leo said nonchalant
"Festus you know what to do, LIGHT EM UP" He yelled, releasing all his pent up fire power. Festus' scales began to overheat and melt form the sheer amount of fire power. The flames turned from white to blue and surprising a dark shade of violet
"No No He can't survive that" Leo said his hands running through his hair.
Meanwhile on the ground, a pale, lean as a bean, blond haired roman shot himself towards the Giant explosion
"Octavian" the demigods growled
" Dirty Bastard," Apollo growled, his voice oozing death
"Gaea will fall, by hands. The poems they shall write about me, OCTAVIAN SAVOIUR OF ROME" He screamed, his voice distant in the wind
A figure squirmed in the claws of the Bronze Dragon. Gaea herself. As they flew higher and higher, giant thin mountains for sand and mud tried to grab their queen back down as they failed, they climbed upwards.
"LEO VALDEZ, YOU WILL DIE FOR THIS, YOU DEATH WILL BE MY ASCENSION"
"Wait, did you just say a Jesus line, Gaea" he retorted
Wait a Gods damn minute, she just did" Athena said
"YOU INSOLENCE WILL BE PUNISJHED WITH DEATH OF ALL YOUR FRIENDS, THEY WILL DIE BY YOUR HANDS" Gaea screamed at him
"Yeah, Yeah, you and every villain ever" Leo said his hands making that 'too much talking' gesture
"You be violating her, Leo- im proud" Percy said
"KILLED YOUR MOTHER, I CAN KILL YOU TOO"
"No you can't because I'm too hot"
Hermes and Apollo both looked at each other, "Too Hot, Hot Damn"
When Percy and Leo understood the reference, they burst out laughing
"AAARGHH"
Octavian's comet hit Festus, bursting Gaea out of the dragon claws and back at the earth. Leo and the remains of Festus were shot thousands of miles over the horizon and disappeared in a giant nuclear explosion
Gaea sank back into the Earth and regained her primordial strength
"Finally, peace and quiet"
The raging battle above, was the only thing Gaea could hear. She rose form the Earth encased in a golden armour like the Witch Morgana.
She pointed her wrist at the demigods saying one last thing
"Good Evening and Good Night" as the demigods were blasted into dust by the raw power she possessed.
She closed her eyes and half a dozen sinkholes appeared in the ground around her. 10 giants rose from the pits of Tartarus
Alycenous, Polybotes, Otis and Ephialtes, Thoon, Clytius, Periobia, Mimas, Hippolytus and Orion- the banes of the gods
"At long last, the demigods have been defeated once and for all" Mimas said
Alycenous raised and hit his staff on the ground, a huge crack appeared and an army of the undead and monsters crawled out of hell itself
"TONIGHT, WE STORM OLYMPUS AND THE MIGHTY GODS SHALL FALL, LONG LIVE THE GIANTS"
